PHYSIOLOGICAL INTEGRATION AMELIORATES NEGATIVE EFFECTS OF DROUGHT STRESS IN THE CLONAL HERB FRAGARIA ORIENTALIS.

Physiological integration ameliorates negative effects of drought stress in the clonal herb Fragaria orientalis.

Clonal growth allows plants to spread horizontally and to establish ramets in sites of contrasting resource status.If ramets remain physiologically integrated, clones in Intake heterogeneous environments can act as cooperative systems--effects of stress on one ramet can be ameliorated by another connected ramet inhabiting benign conditions.But litt

Progress in the diagnosis and classification of pituitary adenomas

Pituitary adenomas are common neoplasms.Their classification is based upon size, invasion of adjacent structures, sporadic or familial cases, biochemical activity, clinical manifestations, morphological characteristics, response to treatment and Halloween recurrence.Although they are considered benign tumors, some of them are difficult to treat due

Lipidomic analysis of lipid droplets from murine hepatocytes reveals distinct signatures for nutritional stress

Liver steatosis can be induced by fasting or high-fat diet.We investigated by lipidomic analysis whether such metabolic states are reflected in the lipidome of hepatocyte lipid droplets (LDs) from mice fed normal chow diet (FED), fasted (FAS), or fed a high-fat diet (HFD).LC-MS/MS at levels of lipid species profiles and of lipid molecular species u
